Rated 5 out of 5 by GelatoMommy Great for one guinea pig so far
I had my guinea pig in a smaller cage, felt bad about it as there was no room to run. She's about 9 mos old, and this cage is a great size. If I got her a buddy, I might consider going up to the jumbo, although I do not know where on earth I'd keep it!
Easy to assemble when pulled out of the box. Gelato likes to keep her poo in relatively the same corner, so cleaning out is easy. I only need to clean this cage every 6 days or so compared to every 4 days with the old one. Taking off the top to clean it entirely is easy, although in winter I might have problems navigating through doors to toss the dirty bedding into the outdoor garbage! Its huge, but great for Gelato, she likes her new home :)
Cage is quality construction, I wouldn't change a thing about it. Delivery was quick, price was the best I could find on the internet for this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kakesie This made a great cage for our pet pigeon.
I like that it has such a high bottom edge to keep debris from falling out of the cage. I had trouble getting the top to snap into place and it's just sitting on the top rather than being securely fastened but it works. Otherwise overall it's a great cage. Easy to clean and nice looking.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Momann Great pet rat cage
This is a very good cage for rattles. We have 4 baby rats right now and unfortunately they are able to slip through the 1/2 inch bars. I am assuming once they're grown they will stay put. In the meantime, I covered the entire cage with metal cloth - very long, painful process. However, I love the deep bin part and the size is wonderful. Rats need both to be comfy and to be manageable.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sammy16 Tubbies X Large cage is perfect for guinea pigs
I bought the x large tubbie cage for my 8 yr old daughters 2 new guinea pigs and was very happy at how big it is! I had read guinea pigs need plenty of room and this cage provides that and more! Its easy to put together and very sturdy! We bought 2 baby guinea pigs and this cage has plenty of room for them to grow and explore in! My daughter and her new pets are really happy!

I have a Flemmie. None of the Tubbies will do. Get 2 or 3 large black coated dog crates and tie them together so they are open for the bunny to move! If you have no cats or dogs simply get a couple large puppy pens. Flemmie need lots of room. They also need at least two hours to hop round out of their cages everyday. I use towels for bedding and have a big under the bed plastic box that I put hay and pellets in. Works great.

I have a Flemish Giant for a pet he quicky out grew the cage in the house,, they can get to more than 20lbs full grown.. I really dont think they make a cage big enough for this animal,,, they can be litterpan trained,, and are a very smart rabbit, best would be a small room till pan trained and can be trused in the rest of the house..

none of these cages are big enough for a flemish giant they are more like free roaming rabbit cause there so largeif you want to cage a flemish giant you need to build a large hutch like 6'long x 4'wide but you cant use wire on the floor cause they are so heavy it can damage there hocks

The large sized cage was the first home for our first bunny. Any sized cage would be good for a rat, but the larger the better. Buy what you can afford and what fits in the space you will keep your pet.

Hi! Most important in housing a rat is the bar spacing on the wire part of the cage--you want to make sure that he or she can't squeeze through. No larger than 1/2" because they can squeeze through incredibly small spaces. Also, check the corners of the wire part of the cage because some cages have wider openings there. I have a baby girl rat I just got & I've had rats previously & if the spacing of the bars on this cage are so narrow that it cant get through, then this would be a great cage for a rat! Right now she's the size of a hamster-she's 4 wks old so I have her in a hamster cage. When she gets big enough, she will be going into an actual cage made for rats & that cage has 1/2" spaces between the bars.You will want to add ramps or at least shelves because they do like to climb & toys to climb on because this isn't a really tall cage. My experience--they don't even need ramps to get up on shelves-they'll just climb the bars! Lots of toys to play with, & if you can, get 2 rats--same gender or you'll end up with a ton of babies. They love the company of a playmate & are fun to watch interact with each other. I have never had a rat that ran in an exercise wheel, though, so I never put one in, even though they have them for sale labled for rats. Hope this helps! Have a great time with your new baby!! :)

My opionion is: yes. I have my bunnies in the jumbo ones and I find the cages are easy to keep clean and provide a lot of good ventilation which helps. Of course, because of that, you might want to put in some little things so the rat can hide if s/he wants, but otherwise, I would recommend it! Enjoy your rat!!

I have three females in one jumbo cage. The "baby" is about 2 1/2 months old. Mama and auntie (who is one of the largest guinea pigs I've ever had) are all very happy in the cage.Mama and auntie were in a smaller cage during the pregnancy. They had to be separated during the last few weeks of the pregnancy.DO NOT keep the male with the female when she is close to delivery. She can become pregnant right after delivery and you would not want that to happen. It would be too much of a stress on her body.

I know this answer is a bit late, but I'd say that neither size is big enough for three, especially when they have litters. Also, I'd recommend if you're breeding guinea pigs to seek help from a reputable breeder and not on here. If you go through a reputable breeder, you'll get more accurate answers to your questions.

I have owned guines pigs, ferrets, rats and rabbits throughout my entire life and the best caging option I have ever come across are the 14" wire cubes that snap together. It won't be a great option while they are babies as the wire spacing is rather large but as adults they'll have more than enough room to happily accomodate everyone. The arrangement possibilities are ENDLESS and they come apart very easily to move or add on as needed.I recently bought my rabbit a very nice, large hutch and she would throw tantrums having to go back into it at night. I had to return it and give her her cube condo back. It's simple, inexpensive and your piggies would LOVE all the space!

Larger is better for hedgehogs, especially since they can't appreciate vertical height. The recommended space for a hedgehog is 6 square feet (864 square inches). The X-Large is 854 square inches, which is close enough, but the Jumbo is 1,146 square inches and an obvious improvement.
